Two things, playing right on top of the beat as best as I can and the other is mixing my drum audio well with the original track. Some of my earlier videos didn't turn out nearly as well as this one did.
Glen.. Dude.. you should be in some kind of sick band no kiddin.. seriously give it a big try.. i'm already a big fan of you, i've seen your videos and you really have a lot of talent..
Tell you what as a graduate of the Musicians Institute, and a 25 year guitar player.. I DO NOT COMPLIMENT.. my ego doesnt allow it.. but this guy is fantastic in all his videos. Outstanding.
nice foot control damn I've been playing 7 years now and i can't even play double bass like that hahahahaha can you give me some advices on playing double pedds.,,...thanks man
I cant hear shit with the bose headphones :/ But they do kinda keep the painful noises out. Inner-ear's are the best, in my opinion, though. And... how long did you practice this?:D Its damn awesome ^_^

This just shows how awesome this guy is. I've been keeping an eye on this guy for the simple fact that hes got a tremendous amount of technique. This song is no easy feat either. I hope that in sometime shortly I can nail this song as good as this guy. Keep rocking bro.
You really played the shit out of this song!

arunsharma0018 2 years ago
double
ud have to be rediculously good/fast to play that with single
although, watching it again, he might be doing 3 hands, 1 foot
hard to tell
nope now im watching i can just about see his foot on the extra pedal :P
nickgrimwade 2 years ago
Those are triplets between the hands and foot. It's R L F very very fast 32nd notes. I am not using my left foot pedal.
gspot27 2 years ago

That is R L F triplets. It's single pedal. R=Right, L=Left, F=Foot (right foot). 32nd note triplets.
